Spring has always encouraged developers to leverage the technologies that best solves their business use cases. Kubernetes is emerging as a very popular platform for running cloud native applications, and Spring makes it quite easy to take advantage of all it has to offer in order to run your applications on this powerful platform. This year at our Spring One Tour events, we are holding an entire three hour workshop on this very topic. In this webinar, we are going to not only preview the workshop, but leave you with the knowledge to get started running Spring apps on Kubernetes. By the time the webinar is over you will have the opportunity and the knowledge to work through the workshop yourself and get started running Spring apps on Kubernetes.

In this talk, your friendly neighborhood Spring Developer Advocate Josh Long (@starbuxman) introduces you to the ground-floor basics of building reactive applications with Spring.

You’ll learn about Reactor, the Reactive Streams specification, and how to build reactive pipelines. We’ll learn about reactive SQL and NoSQL data-access. We’ll look at how to build reactive HTTP and websocket-centric services with Spring and Spring Boot.

Streaming applications are all the rage these days because they open up exciting, new use cases. Every streaming application demands a common set of capabilities. The most critical of all is reliability of the events delivery and processing. But what does reliable processing entail? How do you build a streaming pipeline that’s responsive to performance changes in a distributed system? That’s where the reactor back-pressure comes into the picture.

Join Pivotal Platform Architect Madhav Sathe and Pivotal Principal Software Engineer Marcial Rosales for this online class as they walk you through the ingredients of building streaming pipelines. You’ll learn:

● An overview of what Project Reactor is and how it works.
● How Project Reactor makes it possible to build an end-to-end streaming pipeline.
● How to use RabbitMQ’s native reactive support and Project Reactor to build stateful streaming transformations.
● How to demonstrate backpressure across multiple distributed systems in this architecture.
● How this stack is being used to solve real use cases.

Folks are eager to adopt microservices in order to scale and iterate code faster. Microservices architectures offer a means to safely decouple parts of an application into smaller, more independent units. But adopting a microservices architecture means increasing the number of services communicating via API calls. This introduces the need for API gateways.

API gateways aren’t new, but as cloud-native infrastructure evolves, the requirements for API gateways have changed, too. Today, developers are looking for a gateway that runs close to their application to minimize latency, supports reversions to earlier versions, and operates like any other Spring Boot application. Spring Cloud Gateway deploys independently as a Spring Boot app, integrates with Spring Cloud Service Discovery and Spring Cloud Security, and uses familiar tools for observability and resilience.

● How to set up a basic route using Spring Cloud Gateway
● How to expose the gateway on the network without exposing the services
● How to use Spring Cloud Security to authenticate users at the gateway
● How Pivotal Spring Cloud Gateway makes it easier to operate, upgrade, dynamically configure with no downtime, and more

As an industry, we’ve been reasoning about RabbitMQ's behavior without having the right perspective. Existing tooling has prevented us from understanding what’s happening under the hood and sharing the state with those that really understand how the pieces fit together.

In this online class, you’ll learn how this changes with the new observability tooling in RabbitMQ 3.8. You can finally answer many of the RabbitMQ questions yourself, and share anything that you don’t understand with a RabbitMQ expert.

Join RabbitMQ engineer Gerhard Lazu to learn how:

● To start using the new metrics system in RabbitMQ 3.8
● Developers know when your application is using a RabbitMQ anti-pattern
● Developers who use Quorum Queues can understand the mechanics better
● Operators know when a RabbitMQ deployment is imbalanced
● Erlang experts can unlock deeper RabbitMQ insights
● To share your context when you come across a bug

The Accelerate State of DevOps Report is the result of five years of research—and more than 30,000 data points—and aims to understand how software delivery and operational (SDO) performance drives organizational performance. Our data also supports analyst reports that the industry is crossing the chasm: we see almost 3x the proportion of elite performers compared to last year, with low performers shrinking in comparison.

In this webinar, we discuss the key findings in the 2019 report. Join us and learn:

● the best strategies for scaling DevOps;
● how to leverage the cloud to drive superior outcomes and unlock effective change management;
● how to optimize productivity so you can improve work/life balance and reduce burnout; and
● new findings for how to build a great organizational culture.

Following the recent changes to how some JDKs are licensed and supported, many enterprise leaders have questions. Do I need to pay anything? Where do I get updates? What happens when I encounter issues? It’s confusing!

In this webinar, Ryan Morgan and Ben Hale will review what's changed, and how Pivotal can help you deliver a secure, supported, Java experience to your developers.

In today’s microservices-based world, many mission-critical systems have distributed elements or are entirely distributed. Ideally, these architectures should improve things such as performance, scalability, reliability, and resilience—but subpar design can limit those strengths, or worse yet, turn them into challenges that need to be overcome.

Messaging platforms help solve these problems and improve the "ilities," but they come with a few complexities of their own. This webinar will teach you how to use open-source solutions like Spring Cloud Stream, RabbitMQ, and Apache Kafka to maximize your distributed systems' capabilities while minimizing complexity.

Recent releases of RabbitMQ have made the most popular open-source message broker even more rock solid. The team has made it easier to deploy and easier to operate from Day 2 on. As a de facto standard for message-based architectures, this is great news for teams building microservices and other distributed applications.

But let’s face it: not everyone is running the latest version and taking advantage of these new stability and operational features. Now the next major version (3.8) is shipping and it has some breakthrough features for reliability and scaling. Are you ready?

● How making RabbitMQ persistent and fault tolerant is evolving from mirrored queues to quorum queues
● What mixed-version clusters are and how they simplify upgrades
● How RabbitMQ 3.8 continues to make deploying and operating RabbitMQ easier
● What’s available in terms of OAuth 2.0 support, monitoring improvements, and more
● What features are in development for future versions and minor releases

Kubernetes has exploded in popularity among developers. But as operations teams prepare to support Kubernetes in production, they have more considerations—namely, how to operate a stable platform while maintaining security and compliance. How Kubernetes is configured and deployed has a marked impact on these attributes.

Attend this session with Pivotal’s Vice President of Technology, Cornelia Davis, to learn the following:

● How to isolate tenants in your Kubernetes environment.
● How to make upgrading Kubernetes clusters boring.
● What you should—and shouldn’t—let your developers do.
● What you need around your Kubernetes clusters to keep them safe.

One of the trickiest problems with microservices is dealing with data as it becomes spread across many different bounded contexts. An event architecture and event-streaming platform like Kafka provide a respite to this problem. Event-first thinking has a plethora of other advantages too, pulling in concepts from event sourcing, stream processing, and domain-driven design.

In this talk, Ben and Cornelia will tackle how to do the following:

● Transform the data monolith to microservices
● Manage bounded contexts for data fields that overlap
● Use event architectures that apply streaming technologies like Kafka to address the challenges of distributed data

Serverless computing has become a hot topic in developer communities. The use of ephemeral containers eliminates the need for always-on infrastructure. But the real payoff for serverless is greater code simplicity and developer efficiency. Sounds great! Except the open-source serverless framework space is crowded and complex. Each unique offering approaches functions differently, with varying methods for triggering, scaling, and event formatting. How is that efficient?

One thing that most everybody can agree on is to build on top of Kubernetes. With that as the only common ground though, there is still too much fragmentation for developers to wade through when deciding on the right open source serverless solution.

That's where Knative comes in. An open-source project from Google, Pivotal, and other industry leaders, Knative provides a set of common tooling on top of Kubernetes to help developers build serverless applications. It extends Kubernetes by combining Istio with Custom Resource Definitions to enable a higher-level of abstraction for developers. This brings support for source-to-container builds, autoscaling, routing, and event sourcing. Join this session with Brian McClain and Bryan Friedman to see a complete working demo of Knative and learn:

● What are the components of Knative and how do they work together
● What are the different ways to deploy serverless applications and functions on Knative
● How and when to use Knative’s build features, such as Buildpacks
● What is Knative’s eventing model and how are event sources used to trigger functions
● How Project riff compliments development on top of Knative

Can your organization support developer self-service across 11,000 workloads with certainty that 100% of the workloads are security-approved across the entire stack? The answer is yes with a cloud-native approach.

Cloud-native platforms not only make it easier to support the kind of cultural shift necessary for continuously shipping software, they make it easier to practice good security and reduce the available attack surface. But an attack on the application itself can undermine all platform controls.

In this webinar, Jeff and David will discuss application development code security in pre-production as well as runtime security at scale for cloud-native production applications. This session will cover the following:

● Tools that work well with rapid-cycle CI/CD pipelines
● Baking audit and compliance into pipelines
● Achieving zero downtime CVE patching and updates
● Vulnerability discovery, and blocking of application threats and attacks in the runtime
● Demonstration of threat discovery and blocking

This is the second webinar in a series presented by Pivotal and Contrast Security on cloud-native security best practices. The previous webinar in this series is available in the attachment section.
